How to secure confidential company data?
Spy film: a professional solution to protect your data
Your security and confidentiality are essential and at the heart of your concerns. To bring you discretion and peace of mind, discover polarizing film, also known as Spy Film. This innovative solution enables you to protect your sensitive information easily and effectively. Discreet, high-performance and easy to install, it is perfectly suited to professional environments. Focus on this essential technology for securing your workspaces.
The benefits of Spy Film
Installing a spy film in a company means choosing discreet, intelligent protection. Here are its main advantages:
- Protection of confidential data: by preventing screens from being read from outside a room, it prevents any leakage of information during meetings or sensitive exchanges.
- RGPD compliance: in certain environments, such as administrative departments, bank branches or medical practices, visual protection is mandatory. Privacy film helps you stay compliant with regulations.
- Preserving natural light: unlike opaque glazing or blinds, polarizing film preserves the transparency of the glass and lets light through.
- A cost-effective, non-intrusive solution: no need to change your glazing! The film is applied directly to existing walls.
- Versatility of use: it can be installed in meeting rooms, individual offices, open spaces, lobbies, corridors or reception desks.
- Aesthetically preserved: totally transparent, it doesn't alter the appearance of your spaces.
- Quick, reversible installation: the film can be removed as required, leaving no residue.
How Spy Film works
Spy film acts as a privacy filter, specially designed to render the content of digital screens unreadable when viewed through a glass wall. Specifically, it blurs the display of LCD screens from the outside, while maintaining perfect visibility inside the room.
Important: if you're using OLED or Plasma screens, it's essential to test the film with a free sample, as compatibility may vary from model to model.
The strength of this technology lies in the fact that only the screens are affected. The transparency of the glazing remains intact, guaranteeing brightness in your offices.
This is why polarizing film is particularly popular in :
- meeting rooms where confidential presentations must remain private,
- shared offices and open spaces,
- banks, insurance companies and government agencies,
- high-traffic areas such as corridors opening onto a glass office.
In some cases, its installation is even necessary to comply with the RGPD, especially when personal or strategic data is visible on exposed screens.
Spy Film installation
To take full advantage of spy film's properties, the direction in which it is laid is essential. Depending on the type of screen used, the film must be laid horizontally or vertically for the blackout effect to work properly. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you test a sample on each screen.
A few rules to follow for successful installation:
- The film must be installed on the inside of the room to be protected. Outside, it may simply not work.
- Do not superimpose polarizing film with other decorative or solar films.
- Before installation :
- make cuts beforehand to avoid cracking the film (we can make custom cuts on request),
- unroll the film 24 hours in advance to eliminate shape memory,
- reduce the soap concentration in your installation solution and wet thoroughly to avoid bubbles.
- Use a suitable squeegee to preserve the film surface.
For optimum results, professional installation is the best option, especially on large glass surfaces or in sensitive environments.
In short, spy film is the ideal solution for protecting your visual data without compromising the brightness or aesthetics of your spaces. Easy to install, compatible with a wide range of environments and RGPD-compliant, it represents a smart investment to reinforce the confidentiality of your premises.
